Where to Park
When you come down our driveway, you should see a sign pointing in the direction of our parking area. If you continue past the parking lot, you will see a few parking spots along the right hand side of the driveway, first come first serve. Of course, you are most welcome to come up to the farm and unload any bags, food, etc you are carrying and then bring your car to the parking lot. Please do not block the driveway or block any cars in.
Note: there is accessible parking if you keep coming down the driveway towards the farm, right in front of the solar panels.
Via Public Transportation
There is no public transportation directly to the farm. The nearest bus and train stations are in Albany NY, about 35-40 minutes away. Amtrak, Chinatown, Megabus, and Greyhound all serve Albany. From there, you can take an Uber, Lyft, or Cab (Approx $40) to the farm. Note that it is very difficult to get an Uber, Lyft, or Cab FROM the farm back into town, so plan accordingly.
